The best restaurants serving Indian food in North West

First time here. Really enjoyed the whole experience. Beautiful food lovely service . Inexpensive, excellent quality. Certainly will come again. Thank you 😊

Formerly known as Nasib Tandoori on Kew Road in Birkdale, this Indian take-away has new owners and a new name - The Tandoori. (I believe it is now owned & run by the people behind Kasturi on Eastbank Street in Southport town-centre.) On entering, I particularly liked the view through to the kitchen - giving me confidence in their offer. Selecting from a smart and comprehensive menu, I ordered the following: King Prawn Danchak (£9) Mushroon Rice (£2.60) Aloo Gobi side dish (£2.75) They advised me waiting time was 30 minutes and the food was ready in about 25 mins. All dishes were enjoyable. Decent portion sizes and good prices. The King Prawn dish had 10 large prawns which were very tasty. I asked for my vegetable dish to be made hot and they got this right. All in all it was pretty good and I`ll be back. Main course chicken curry is a very reasonable £4.75 & boiled rice is £1.65, so you can eat from here without breaking the bank. Free parking directly outside the venue, on the road nearby, or across the road. PRO TIP: ring ahead to place your order on 01704 568637. If you collect and spend £15 or more, you are entitled to a portion of pakora & poppadoms for free!

The smell of this place is divine and is very promising of the food to come. The food is flavourful, the portions are generous and the staff are lovely and polite. Absolute favourite!

the most bland tasteless Kebab I have ever had.Would never order this again

Foods always great very consistent 👌

I have been having food from here for a number of years but recently the quality of the takeaway food has not been good. I ordered a takeaway recently to be delivered. Delivery was great but the food was really bad. A range of curry dishes was ordered. They were very bland and some you could only experience the heat of the spices which were uncomfortably hot. I will not be having food from here again

Great service and great food, what more can you want

Pretty good Indian with nice food but the service was terrible... The server could barely speak English and we waited nearly an hour for our food when it wasn't even busy is not good enough and my guess is they were concentrating on Just Eat orders as I could hear the machine constantly pinging and printing. The food was good but not worth the wait and as for the atmosphere, it's fully open and just too loud with all the talking. I had to listen to someone behind me talk total BS for the best part of an hour ... To be fair I couldn't wait to leave !

i came on Thursday 15th September with my wife at around 3pm. On entering the restaraunt the elegance hits you immediatly. The staff were very friendly and professional and helped us with taking some photos. We have been in hundreds of Indian restaraunts around the country but this establishment and the sheer quality of the food is by far the best we have experienced in our lives. Thank you to all the staff. Peter

Very friendly staff and beautifully cooked food in particular the Highway Chicken Tikka which was excellent !

I received my order on time and hot. The lamb balti was so good. Lots of lamb and cooked to perfection. The naan breads were soft and fresh and not dry or burnt like other restaurants I’ve ordered from. I will definitely be ordering again from here and recommend it to anyone. Can’t fault it at all

Just finished our curries ordered on the app excellent food and service would definitely recommend

5-5 30th October 2024. ‘Wandering Wednesday’ this week took both Hubby Neil and I to ‘Bombay 8’ from which we both have said it’s the BEST Indian dinner we have EVER had and believe you and me, we tried a lot of different restaurants, we been to Bombay 8 many times before and it just seems to get better and better!!! Our Dinner this evening was totally OUTSTANDING!! The staff were all so very pleasant indeed, I’m gutted I didn’t get the names of our servers, a young gentleman with a beard, short hair was very well groomed and pretty lady with long dark hair and beautiful nails!!, they were totally professional, attentive and very well mannered, they gave us outstanding service and are a complete credit to this establishment….. thank you. Starters: We both had ‘Bombay special mixed platter’: Chicken tikka, lamb chop, sheek kebab and garlic chicken, garnished with crispy salad, 2 side dishes of sauce, one of which was a chilli jam, we mentioned it to our gentleman server and he brought over 2 takeaway tubs full of the chilli jam for us, we were so grateful, it was very kind of him and he said he made it himself! Absolutely Delicious! Entrée’s: Neil had Lamb chop Frango, tender grilled lamb chops cooked in a spicy thick sauce, with yellow lentils, chillies, garlic, ginger and coriander, all together created a rich spiced sauce…… I had Tandoori mixed Korai, which was tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, lamb tikka, sheek kebab with chunks of tomatoes, red and green peppers, with a rich thick sauce (I asked this to be Madras hot, it was PERFECT.) garnished with spring onion and coriander….. We both had Bombay special rice each. To share: a bowl of chips and Peshwari naan bread… Total compliments to the chefs…..you are all very talented in your work…. Thank you. All the dishes were perfect and it was all completely faultless. The restaurant has been recently decorated and all the servers uniforms were pristine. Well done Bombay 8, the manager came over and said hello too….. your restaurant is a credit to you and your staff. Thank you. Big question? Will we be back?? What do you think!!!!

Ordered many times from Kismat and the past few times havnt been the best. We ordered butter chicken as we have had many times before but sadly this was awful tonight and we won’t be using Kismat again. Such a Shame

Very good service. Not expensive. Very nice food. Had a small issue with one of the courses which as sorted out immediately with a smile and no fuss. Would come again
